HDR Image is best described as radiance hdr format for high dynamic range lighting data, primarily serving HDR photography, 3D lighting environments and tone mapping. M2TS Video takes over where HDR Image falls short: broadcast-grade quality used in Blu-ray authoring. This conversion bridges two ecosystems: Greg Ward's HDR Image and Blu-ray Disc Association's M2TS Video. Xonvert supports batch conversion — convert multiple files at once and download them all as a ZIP.

Conversion Quality Deep Dive
Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality HDR Image input produces an excellent M2TS Video output. Xonvert defaults to high quality settings that keep file size reasonable without compromising perceivable quality. HDR Image encodes data using mathematical algorithms that preserve every data point. M2TS Video similarly focuses on perceptual quality. The conversion maps between these approaches intelligently. HDR Image's known limitation — large files, limited display support for full HDR range — is resolved when converting to M2TS Video, which offers broadcast-grade quality used in Blu-ray authoring.
Converting a static HDR Image image to M2TS Video video format creates a single-frame video file. This is useful for creating video slideshows, adding images to video editing timelines, or preparing content for platforms that only accept video formats. The output will contain your image as a still frame with the duration and framerate you specify.
Compression trade-off: Your lossless HDR source retains all original data. Converting to lossy M2TS will reduce file size substantially, but some data is permanently discarded. Use the quality slider to balance file size against fidelity.
